Add a construct to make/schedule AWS API calls #2538
Description
The cdk could benefit from an AwsLambda or ScheduledAwsLambda construct that could be used like this:
new ScheduledAwsLambda(this, 'StopInstance', {
service: 'RDS',
action: 'stopDBInstance',
parameters: {
DBInstanceIdentifier: '...',
},
scheduleExpression: 'cron(0 1 * * ? *)'
});
new ScheduledAwsLambda(this, 'StartExecution', {
service: 'StepFunctions',
action: 'startExecution',
parameters: {
stateMachineArn: '...',
},
scheduleExpression: 'cron(0 1 * * ? *)',
});The lambda function takes the service, action and parameter as event and simply makes the call using aws-sdk-js.
